It was a sad day for the film industry and his fans when Gene Hackman decided to retire from acting, but great for him to having time to do other things.
Note: I've been busy on other message boards, and today is just one of those rare days when nothing much is happening, so I have some time to spare and look at whose birthday it is. And it's a fun way to post on the personal boards; I get to learn a lot about all those different actors.
